On September 21, The Wall Street Journal revealed that Jill Stein paid $100,000 to Trent Pool, a MAGA operative who participated in the insurrection at the Capitol on January 6. This builds on previous reporting that exposed ties between Stein and other Trump-affiliated operatives, including Jay Sekulow, the attorney who represented Trump during his first impeachment trial, and Michael D. Dean, who worked on behalf of Trump to overturn the 2020 election.
